The World Bank announced that it is consolidating its collection of more than “2,000 books, articles, reports and research papers in a search engine friendly Open Knowledge Repository, and allowing the public to distribute, reuse and build upon much of its work – including commercially.”
The Bank’s new open access policy takes effect on July 1 and will be phased in over the next year.
